Looking for sheet music(classical in particular) this is the place to go. It’s rather fun to walk in and do «I want so-and-so’s piece for duet for this instrument and that instrument» and watch them walk over and very precisely pull out exactly what you want.(It’s like magic!) If they don’t have it, they can order it in. Also — they have an online catalog on their website, so you can tell if items are in stock or not(and order by phone — but it’s more fun to go in and talk to them.) Enjoy! Would I return? Yes Would I recommend? Yes

I have been here many times in search of music and harmony books. This store carries much more specialized music than most places. Since I play the oboe, this is really the only place in the city where I can come to buy music. The same can be said for advanced harmony instruction books. The Leading Note also carries many scores and lots of music for choirs. I also especially like their section with more worldly piano music. As I have recently started teaching piano in French(my second language), the staff at the Leading Note were extremely helpful in telling me about French beginner method books and comparing them for me. If you are looking for a teacher, there is a bulletin board full of cards from teachers around the city. There is also a section on their website where you can find teachers. The staff are friendly and are all musicians themselves.
